Liah Arxien

I sit on the couch with my knees in front of me as I watch the slaves doing what Xeus told them to do. Xeus goes out after he ordered his slaves at hindi parin siya bumabalik hanggang ngayon. I was getting bored by any minute pero hindi naman ako malaya para gawin ang mga bagay na makakaalis sa akin mula sa boredom ko.

I flinch when someone sit at the opposite edge of the couch. The guy look at me and gave me his warm smile. His gray eyes was intimidating with his chestnut brown hair. His locks where shining in the lights.

"You're getting bored?"

Nakangiting tanong nito sa akin na nginitian ko lang pabalik bago tumango sa kanya. He has a deep voice also.

"How about this?"

Napatingin ako sa kanya. He was helding a book on his hands. It has a green cover. Hindi ko maaninag kung ano talaga ang nasa cover niya.

Wow. I miss reading books. That should kill my time while waiting for Xeus to return. Mukhang nakasanayan ko na siyang tawaging Xeus eh.

Tinanggap ko ang libro at nakangiting tumingin sa kanya.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. By the way I'm Jarred the head slave of this floor."

Sabi niya habang inilahad sa akin ang kamay niya. Napatingin saglit sa amin yung ibang nagtatrabaho dun. There are exactly 4 slaves in here doing their jobs. Saglit lang yun dahil binaling ulit nila ang attention sa kanilang ginagawa.

"Liah. As you can see I'm a pet."

Sarcastic na sabi ko sa kanya bago tinanggap ang kamay niya. He chuckled on me bago tumayo sa kinauupuan niya at naglakad dun sa kasamahan niyang inaayos ang walk-in closet ni Xeus. The guy who has blond hair was dusting the other things while the other two was getting the things, clothes out of the box which was my things. Gusto ko sanang ako ang gumawa nun pero ayaw ng master ko. It's his slaves doing not his pet's. That what he tells me so please don't blame me.

"You're too beautiful for a pet."

Napatigil naman ang tatlo sa sinabi ni Jarred at napatingin sa akin.

"Jarred stop it. You don't want to angry Mr. Lord." sabi ng lalaking gray ang buhok. His eyes were emerald like one of those gems that I used to wear as jewels.

"Wag kang ganyan dahil head slave ka. Tandaan mo madaling magalit yun."

Dagdag naman ng lalaking blond ang buhok na naka face mask.

"Well I'm just curious how she end up here. Mukhang hindi naman siya galing sa mahirap na pamilya." Jarred said.

The other one seems so quiet. Seryoso lang itong gumagawa ng kanyang gawain. I can't even look at his whole face dahil mahaba ang bangs niya na kayang tabunan ang kanyang mga mata. Only one thing I notice on him. His burnt mark on the back of his wrist. Parang nakita ko na yun kung saan pero hindi ko maalala.

"Jarred tama na nga yan." Suway ng dalawa sa kanya. Jarred just groaned as he continue what he was doing before.

"Sorry."

Sabi niya ng napatingin ako sa kanya. Hindi ko nalang siya pinansin at tiningnan ang librong hawak hawak ko. It was entitled 'Taming the beast'. The cover was, well it was amazing. Isang lalaking maangas ang mukha ang nasa cover nun. By his looks you can tell that he has bossy, arrogant and fierce attitude. Beside him was a lady full of beauty. With the look in her bluish eyes you can see innocents, fragility and sensitivity. The cover was inviting me to open the pages and read the daring words there.
